With Terry McAuliffe’s GreenTech the target of a federal investigation, he’s now getting all the leaks and drama that come from HillaryLand. The Washington Post reports that “people inside Hillary’s world are furious” with comparisons between McAuliffe’s campaign and Hillary Clinton’s 2016 prospects. In the past, his allies have called his campaign a “test run” for a 2016 Clinton candidacy:

Many Democrats see Mc­Auliffe’s gubernatorial campaign as the ground floor of a would-be Hillary Rodham Clinton presidential run — with his Virginia operation serving as a farm team in a critical swing state and donors believing they can curry favor with her by helping Mc­Auliffe.

But those taking this approach are doing so without Hillary Clinton’s direct blessing, and people close to her are trying to quash the notion, believing she could be damaged if her political strength is measured by the McAuliffe campaign.

“I can’t tell you how many people inside Hillary’s world are furious with that,” said one Clinton insider, who like some others interviewed for this article requested anonymity because of the sensitivity of the subject. “It is not a trial run. . . . This is not a campaign-in-waiting.”
